Coaching
In 1989, Gill began his coaching career at The University of Nebraska, his alma mater, serving one year as a graduate assistant coach. After spending a season each at North Texas University and Southern Methodist University, Gill returned once again to Nebraska, where he coached quarterbacks from 1992-2003 and wide receivers in 2004. Gill served as position coach for two first team All-Americans, Tommie Frazier and Eric Crouch, with Crouch also earning the Heisman Trophy under Gill's tutelage. The Cornhuskers earned three national championships in Gill's time as an assistant there. In 2005, Gill was hired by the Green Bay Packers as Director of Player Development to help players become acclimated to playing professional football in Green Bay and to direct players to resources concerning community involvement, continuing education, financial management, and retirement planning. He also served as an assistant wide receivers coach and an offensive assistant coach through December 2005.

Gill, who was part of three national championships as a coach at the University of Nebraska and a Heisman Trophy finalist as a player, agreed to a five-year contract to become the 23rd head football coach at the University at Buffalo on December 16, 2005.

you are just talking semantics-he was ASSISTANT HEAD COACH. You left about 8 years off his resume. To say Turner Gill is not qualified to be a Division 1A Coach is a poor reflection on YOU.

1. Mike Leach. They hate him at TT. He may be gone after this season.
2. Michael Haywood. One of Orsinis boys!
3. Bob Davie. Orsini also knows him.

Coaching is a fraternity. It will be somebody Orsini knows. I just hope we don't get some old guy, or one of these idiots who had the world and did something stupid.

No, Stallion, haven't you heard? Gill's just the only black man on campus, filling the quota so the school can get federal funding!!

Please list all the Div-1A coaches that jumped from QB or WR coach to HC.

If you find one, I will retract all of my statements.

If you cannot find one, then you have inquire into this 'issue'

No thanks. Why don't you, it would help your racist "Gill is a token" argument, which I am not inclined to do.

I'd give you Davie...ND Connection. BAd choice for SMU since we need an OC with a gimmick.
